“The ruling party has a lot of resources, and they buy all the airtime ... Also, another question is that it depends on the station manager, whether he wants or dares to sell airtime to other parties” - Ly Sothearayuth, senior program officer at the National Democratic InstituteThough the law calls for campaigning only in the month leading into Election Day, parties have already started, a democracy observer said Thursday.
“We see the ruling party campaigning and broadcasting on TV and radio, and the opposition visits directly to help people solve problems like land conflicts and so on,” said Ly Sothearayuth, a senior program officers at the National Democratic Institute, on “Hello VOA.”
With less than three months to go for the election, many voters say they are concerned with media bias. Observers say most of the media is skewed to the ruling Cambodian People’s Party, and voters say they aren’t hearing enough about other parties.
Parties can buy airtime, Ly Sothearayuth said, but it’s expensive.
“The ruling party has a lot of resources, and they buy all the airtime,” he said. “Also, another question is that it depends on the station manager, whether he wants or dares to sell airtime to other parties.”

There are many ways in getting message across to supporters and will be supporters of the party not just airtime on TV and radio.
A good campaign manager will find a way and strategic method to help launching and spreading the message.
Behive is one of the station that can be approached for airtime, however the problem with Behive is much more than just selling the airtime for interested party[s] who wants to spread their message to their supporters but [the station] will take the opportunity to be rated as an independent station and at the same time sending the wrong message to supporters of either party with personal point of view on topic discussed or questions asked during airtime..
SRP has it own bought airtime from abroad which of course help with the campaign.
RNP has it own station.
she can't make it .
Again the SRP is cheating and bullshitting. Their party has dominated the internet and they didn't even mentioned that. Alot of people spend more time on internet now days than they spend on TV and radio.
Again the CPP (Communist Pro youn Party) is cheating and bullshitting. Their party has dominated the radios and TVs and they didn't even mentioned that.
Go down ! ah Hun Sen, a third-year- elementary-school- educated Prime Minister with 28 years of holding power, is the Criminal against humanity in Cambodia and is a former Khmer Rouge soldier in Khmer Rouge Regime, from CPP (Communist Pro youn Party)
Yes!, Whore Nam Hong is responsible since he is the Death Camp Management. Since you said, he is the one that has authoritative power. And that make ah Whore Nam Hong responsible for anyone that die in that Concentration Camp because he is the One that PUSH THE BUTTON!
One thing you have to remember in your Neanderthal brain mass--Khmer Rouge had no connection to any Kinship systems. THEY TOLD ME IN THE CONCENTRATION CAMP THAT THE ENEMY IS YOUR PARENTS, BROTHERS, SISTERS, AND/OR RELATIVES.
So, Whore Nam Hong killing his own is no supprised! "Ankar is their KruSa".
Yeah, and your are responsible for the dead for your family and relatives for allowing the Khmer Rouge to kill them.
From credible source within national police P Penh headquarter,
CPP started campaigning since the beginning of 2008. Especially the National Police mid level management under ong lon nhu di direction are campaigning every week end.
Every able officer must go out to assigned district to sneak peek campaign.
Conflict of interest: these officers are paid by national budget but yet are ordered by CPP to carry out illegal campaign.
If the CPP has done illegal campaign, we all would have seen some picture here, you idiot (9:03). Stop lying.
